Bad Weather in Dubai Feb 01, 2008
Be careful out there.

The winds today are touching 40-45 knots from the north west. This is a 'Shamal' wind and can be quite destructive. Luckily it is coming in from the sea and therefore not carrying the dust normally associated with this type of storm. It is predicted to last into the night and ease by tomorrow.

Beware of flying debris and the possibility of branches in the road.

I was driving back from Abu Dhabi this morning. At 8.30am visibility in Dubai was not so good. Abu Dhabi seemed clearer. Sands everywhere.

Chilly in the morning too !!!!

I take it then the locals will be driving faster in order to get out of the bad weather quicker?
